It is believed that the effort to create
corner in Turkish prunes will react on the
syndicate which originated it. The more
such failures the better.
A full blooded Indian has been ordained
deacon in an Episcopal church in Minneapo-
lis, and the New York Tribune u1blushingly
remarks that he must be Lo churchman.
Inspector Byrnes of New York is receiving
great deal of praise for discovering the
murderer of Bohle. 1t was, indeed, a re-
markable piece of work. The inspector has
done several things which show him to be
f1rst-class detective.
The heather Chinese government has
awarded $25, 900 damages to the missionaries
in southern China who were the victims of
riot some months since. The government
of this Christian country has not yet appro-
priated money to indemnify the Chinese vic
Tins of the Rock Greek outrages.
The unreasonable attacks upon the propo-
sition made by the Housatonic Valley Rail
road company are entirely uncalled for. Let
the offer be discussed fairly and with the in
tent to do the best possible thing for the city
The offer furnishes an opportunity which the
taxpayers of New Haven are not slow to see.
AS good an offer has never been made, and
it is extremely doubtful if as good one ever
again will be.
High license continues to grow in favor
'teut West" The high-license bill intro
duced in the Indiana legislature provides for
license of $500 year for country saloon
and 5000 for town or city saloon. One half
of the county or Country" license goes into
the school fund.- the other half is retained for
county purposes. In the city and town
licenses permission is granted for a further
raise of 5000. This would make it possible
to tax saloons in Indianapolis $500 year.
A writer in Canadian paper, speaking of
the possibilities of pulp as substitute for
| lumber in the manufacture of furniture and
9th articles now exclusively made of wood,
calls attention to the resources afforded by
| northern Canada for the best pulp making
| woods. Il is found that in some localities
| the forests are now at the best age for pulp
| ing purposes, and capable of yielding from
| forty to one hundred and twenty cords per
| acre, if the whole of the timber were utilized.
| By mixing the pulp with clays, stealite, as
bestos, plumbago, mica, &C., substances of
every color and compactness may be pro-
| duced.
The Electrical Review has information re-
garding a wind motor, designed for use with
an electric-lighting plant, which has novel
features. The power of the motor in the or
| dinary breeze is said to be about equal to
| that of an ordinary windmill presenting the
| same surface to the wind. AS the wind in
creases in force the speed and power of the
motor increase in proportion, without any
check, except by the work it performs; but
the machinery driven by the motor runs at
one uniform speed, however much the motor
may vary in speed. The idea Of the inventor
| was to make motor that would drive a
dynamo to charge accumulators, and do its
work automatically, without requiring the
presence of an attendant. The motor is left
free to start whenever there is sufficient
wind to drive land when it attains sufficient
speed to drive the dynamo safely, the dyna-
mo is started automatically, and not before.
